stuck at "writing lead in..."

[aidanz]

i'm trying to burn an .avi file onto a disk using DVD Flick to create the DVD Project & using IMGBurn to burn to the disc, but i'm getting stuck at "writing Lead In..."

i left it for about 15minutes and nothing happened so i clicked abort, and nothing has happened for the past 10minutes.

 

anything i can do to get past "writing Lead In..."? it usually only takes about 20seconds to do that but this time (and some other times) it just sticks and does nothing.

 

i've attached my log.

Try again after installing the latest firmware 1.28 on your drive, currently you have 1.24. http://www.firmwarehq.com/Pioneer/DVR-212/files.html

 

Use higher quality media such as Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden or at least other discs that don't use CMC dye.

 

Use the current version of Imgburn. Replace the executable from DVDFlick\imgburn with the newer on from Imgburn in Program Files.

 

Or do it in two steps, first the encoding than the burn with the current version.
